I love the idea of using different colors for different months so you can visually see what you saved in each different month 😊

For my debt trackers, I like to use the statement balance. At that point, it's already accounted for any interest accrued plus any payments I made through the billing period. 😊

Thank you for the video I remember watching you in 2018 and remember you was in your apartment with all you stuff on the wall and coloring different paper. I remember the student loan debt one you had up. This is a much need video for me due to I wanted to start tracking visually to keep me motive. I was wondering what type of paper do you use for the tracker so when you color it in it won’t blend through the paper. Also do you still use your cannon 9120. I remember running out to the store to get it best investment ever:) keep up the great work also congratulations on the baby🎉🎉🎉🎉

Hi Kumiko, I just read your book My Money My Way. I'm not one to finish reading a book and let me just say, I couldn't put the book down. I had registered for your emails a long time ago. Back then I wasn't in a position to start this journey but now I'm ready. Is there any way I can go back to day 1 on your videos to really understand all this and follow along with your lessons.

For car loans the monthly payment is the same and it includes the interest. I have a 60 month loan so should I calculate my total car payments for 60 months and put that as the total amount for the tracker?

Kumiko, this is my first year using your planner and method and I want to get it right. However, I am unsure of how to categorize the fee we pay to our accountant for our personal income tax filing. My categories are food, utilities, shelter, transportation, savings, entertainment, credit card and medical. And also, what we pay in to its for taxes, I would assume could be in a sinking fund for taxes but I'm not sure about the accountant fee.

I tried using trackers when saving up for my house, but expenses related to the home kept coming up. So the balance kept going up and down. How do you deal with that? I feel like I failed at planning.

I work in my vehicle and I totally get you! I looked at the last 2 years of unexpected vehicle needs then divided by 12. ($200 a month) Now I set that amount aside each month and it does absorb most of the unexpected expenses

Question concerning acct balances. If I put “$100” in a sinking fund envelope then spend $200, when I add the $100 next month, is the balance on envelope $0 or $100?

@Browniethehamster139 10 ай бұрын
If there's only $100 in the envelope then you can only spend $100.
